Lynx Air: new start-up in Canada

On 16 November, Lynx Air was unveiled as a new Calgary-based start-up. The airline is the result of the rebranding of Enerjet, which operated three B737-700s out of Calgary and has orders for three B737-8s. The start-up has a new management team, with the CEO bringing in a world of experience as the former CEO of Tigerair Australia, Virgin Australia Regional and Virgin Australia Cargo.

Next to taking over the three orders for the B737-8s, Lynx Air has also secured leases for 43 additional B737-8s that will be delivered over a period of seven years. The first three aircraft, C-FSLO (44314), C-FULH (44306) and C-GJSL (44312) are set to be delivered early next year.

Lynx Air will announce its first destinations out of Calgary over the coming weeks.
